At an event promoting the upcoming slate of Fox shows, the cast of the BԪַBeverly Hills, 90210BԪַ reboot remembered their castmate Luke Perry, who died earlier this year.

BԪַLuke was a huge part of our BԪַ90210BԪַ family, and personally Luke was a very large part of my life,BԪַ Jason Priestly said. BԪַSo, itBԪַs obviously very difficult to do this without him.BԪַ

Perry had starred as ArchieBԪַs father, Fred Andrews, in the Netflix show BԪַRiverdale,BԪַ much of which is shot in Langley, B.C.

Entitled BԪַBH90210,BԪַ the new show isnBԪַt a continuation of the series. Having gone their separate ways after the series ended nearly 20 years ago, the actors return as heightened versions of themselves.

In addition to Priestley, original stars Jennie Garth, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian Austin Green and Tori Spelling were in New York to promote the new show, set for a summer debut.

BԪַThe show is comedic drama, very, very heavy on the comedy side. ItBԪַs a scripted, fake reality show that follows Jason Priestly and Ian Ziering and Jennie Garth, all of us trying to get a reboot of BԪַBeverly Hills 90210BԪַ made, and what that entails,BԪַ Priestley said.

While most of the original cast will return, there is a void after PerryBԪַs death following a massive stroke in March.

BԪַIBԪַm still having trouble reconciling that, so I donBԪַt have an answer for you. ItBԪַs difficult. He was a good friend of mine,BԪַ Ziering said.
